Your hospitality, expertise, and kindness made this journey so special. Every detail – from the delicious meals to the thoughtful recommendations and amazing activities – created memories we’ll cherish for a lifetime.
It’s hard to choose highlights, because every single day was incredible. The energy, care, and warmth you brought to each moment made all the difference. We truly felt like part of the Explorion family.
We are deeply grateful for everything, and we can’t wait until the day we get to join you again. Until then, safe travels and best wishes on all your future journeys.

Crew- Janey and Murray were awesome. Our family likes a combination of privacy while also getting to know crews as well. Janey and Murray were both perfect at this. They were always professional but also fun and did little things that made us feel like we were getting to know each other well. Our kids felt comfortable which can be hard for our twin girls to feel comfortable with strangers and yet both had nothing but great things to say about Murray (fun) and Janey (cool younger female adult that they connected to). Our entire family raved about the food and enjoyed every meal much more than we anticipated. Our kids can be slightly picky and Janey accommodated everything and they were exposed to new foods that they now are requesting at home (poke bowls, eggs benedict, couscous, etc.) . Murray was a great help during the meals but they also allowed us to have our private time during meals which was important to us. Overall, food was one of the highlights of the trip and would highly recommend Janey. Murray was an excellent captain who went out of his way to accommodate our wants and ensure we were comfortable. He took us to places we had never been before like the Little Harbor, Indians, Great harbor and Foxy’s and cliff jumping at Lee Bay while also making sure we hit out favorites like Saba, Willy T’s, Sandy Caye, Fallen Jeruselum and White Bay. He amended his itinerary to accommodate us and always anchored in places that minimized any chance of seasickness. He was also a blast and made sure we had enough adventure. He took us on hikes, cliff jumping, we did water sports on Little Harbor, etc. and then became bar tender at lunch and dinner with new cocktails while ensuring my daughters had virgin versions so that they felt included. Overall, the crew was a 10:10 including little touches that made us feel special like decorating to celebrate my son’s graduation.
The Boat- Starry Night was the perfect size for the family and accommodations were better than we thought. I felt Murray and Janey both made the boat as optimal as possible including making the rooms up every morning and always making the toys available wherever we stopped. The only downside was that the water maker was broken which forced us into extra stops. However, Murray chose great stops that we had wanted to go to anyway (Peter Island, etc.) so minimal impact due to Murray. However, it was something that we were consistently thinking about and minimizing our shower time, etc. The only other item would be having AC earlier in the day but I would view this as something we could have mentioned to Murray and he would have easily turned it on earlier to accommodate us. Overall the boat was good and better than expected but glad we didn’t go with anything smaller or cheaper and would want to ensure the water maker was functioning next time on a charter.
I cannot say enough good things about the crew and their ability to balance our desire for privacy coupled with feeling like we gained new friends. The best thing I can say is that we will never forget this trip or our crew and will always have amazing memories that we will continue to cherish.

What a fabulous week aboard Indulgence with the greatest captain, chef, and crew imaginable!
Captain Tim’s experience and knowledge made every day exceptional. He always knew the perfect places to take us based on the winds, waves, and weather, making us feel safe, relaxed, and completely cared for throughout our journey.
Every meal prepared by Chef Siboney was truly five-star — beautifully prepared, delicious, and something we looked forward to each and every day.
Tarzan was an absolute delight to have aboard, always making sure the fun toys were ready for adventure and that our cocktails were never empty. His energy and kindness added so much to the experience.
As this wonderful week comes to an end, we feel we have not only made new friends, but extended family. We wholeheartedly recommend Indulgence, Captain Tim, Chef Siboney, and Tarzan to anyone looking for an unforgettable experience in paradise.

The boat was just like our boat before and was great. The BVI was different than the USVI but it was terrific. The sailing was superb. We sailed to Anegada where we rented a truck and our Captain drove us around the island, taking up to snorkeling spots, and various beaches. We had dinner at Sid’s, it was fabulous. We saw the flamingos!!
Let’s talk about our crew.
Captain Jason and Chef Juan – WOW!!!!
These two work together like a well oiled machine. They compliment each other well.
When Captain Jason said we received an upgrade when Chef Juan came on board he was not kidding. The food was fantastic and we all brought back at least 10 pounds each. Captain Jason took us to unique places and we always had optimum yacht placement.
If you have any first time charter groups, Captain Jason is the person and this is the boat to send them on. Captain Jason and Chef Juan were both very chill, calm, and always smiling. If they asked once, they asked 100 times if there was anything we wanted or anything they could get us.
They never sat down and had dinner with us or interjected into our conversations unless asked and then only for the parts that pertained to them. They truly realized this was our vacation and they were there to take care of us and let us be worry free. Provisions were more than we needed and no one ever wanted for a thing. Just absolutely the best experience and 100% will do a trip with Captain Jason again at some point. This is our new bar for any charter we take.

Sea Dog was the best BVI catamaran experience I’ve ever had. I’ve been on four other BVI catamaran trips in the past and while none of them have been a negative experience, the boat and crew were unbeatable.
Five star service and meals were consistent. The boat is very modern and does not have the septic smell that you can experience on some boats. It was also refreshed daily by the crew. Plenty of areas for everyone to hang out/hide.
Capitan Tom is an expert on sailing and was incredible with my two daughters, 13 and 11 yo. Nightly tubing adventures were standard as well as countless secret spots for snorkeling and exploring.
This trip exceeded every expectations so far that I booked the same trip again this summer for fear that the crew/boat may change up next season.
